The Elaborate phase provides opportunities to expand students' conceptual knowledge in novel situations through inquiry.

 

 

Elaborate also:

  • Involves the students in designing and carrying out investigations that derive from the previous phases
  • Involves students sharing, comparing and discussing these investigations/experiences leading to a cycle of potential further investigation
  • The teacher introducing additional learning opportunities as well as providing access to support materials including text, audio and video as well as simulations
